EDITORS' SUGGESTION

What is the Brillouin zone of an anisotropic photonic crystal?

P. Sivarajah, A. A. Maznev, B. K. Ofori-Okai, and K. A. Nelson

Phys. Rev. B 93, 054204 (2016) - Published 9 February, 2016

The authors discuss the concept of the Brillouin zone, central to many fields of condensed matter physics. They challenge the universality of defining the Brillouin zone as a Wigner-Seitz cell of the reciprocal lattice. Experimental measurements of terahertz phonon-polariton dispersion in a photonic crystal fabricated in a thin slab of an anisotropic material (lithium niobate) demonstrate that the lowest band gap does not form at the boundary of the conventionally defined Brillouin zone, in contrast to a similar photonic crystal fabricated in a nearly isotropic lithium tantalate. The analysis motivated by this unexpected experimental result shows that in an anisotropic photonic crystal the Wigner-Seitz cell of the reciprocal lattice is no longer bounded by Bragg planes and, consequently, does not conform to the original definition of the Brillouin zone. The authors construct an alternative Brillouin zone bounded by the Bragg planes and show its utility in analyzing the dispersion bands of anisotropic photonic crystals.

Time-dependent many-body treatment of electron-boson dynamics: Application to plasmon-accompanied photoemission

M. Schüler, J. Berakdar, and Y. Pavlyukh

Phys. Rev. B 93, 054303 (2016) - Published 16 February, 2016

The authors present a time-dependent nonequilibrium Green’s function formalism for electrons interacting with bosonic excitation such as phonons, photons, or plasmons. In this scheme, the equations of motion for the Green’s functions – the Kadanoff-Baym equations – of electrons and bosons are treated on equal footing and therefore require substantial modifications as compared to the usual two-times propagation scheme. Motivated by recent experiments, the authors apply their formalism to time-resolved photoemission from bulk magnesium core states, a prominent system where the excitation of collective electronic motion in the conduction band leads to the characteristic plasmon satellites in the spectrum. The two corresponding pathways for this electron energy-loss effect – intrinsic or extrinsic losses – are usually hard to disentangle due to their quantum interference. The authors demonstrate how the loss channels manifest in a time-dependent picture and discuss how to discern them in the time domain.

Magnetic rigid rotor in the quantum regime: Theoretical toolbox

Cosimo C. Rusconi and Oriol Romero-Isart

Phys. Rev. B 93, 054427 (2016) - Published 26 February, 2016

A theoretical framework is developed to study a magnetically levitated nanomagnet in the quantum regime. The system is very rich due to the interaction between its degrees of freedom: position, orientation, and magnetization. In particular, the Einstein–de Haas effect, namely the coupling between the magnetization and the angular momentum of the object, plays a dramatic role. This work sheds new light on one of the few unsolved problem in quantum mechanics, the rigid rotor with a spin. At the same time, it opens up the possibility to model the dynamics of a single magnetic domain nanoparticle in a magnetic trap, an interesting new scenario for future experiments.

Frequency nonreciprocity of surface spin wave in permalloy thin films

O. Gladii, M. Haidar, Y. Henry, M. Kostylev, and M. Bailleul

Phys. Rev. B 93, 054430 (2016) - Published 29 February, 2016

One of the most peculiar properties of spin waves in magnetic thin films is nonreciprocal wave propagation, i.e., a dependence of the wave properties on the propagation direction. The authors study this effect in permalloy films of thickness varying from 6 to 40 nm and find that the difference in the frequencies can reach several tens of MHz. The authors show that this frequency nonreciprocity is mainly caused by asymmetric magnetic anisotropies at the two surfaces of the ferromagnetic film. This result is important to understand recent works on the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, an unconventional chiral magnetic interaction that generates a similar frequency nonreciprocity. The authors demonstrate that while these contributions usually occur at the same time, the two can be distinguished via the difference in their dependence on the film thickness.
